A win I think which hasn't turned up

I've been googling myself today and found my name on a winners list for http://www.focusmag.co.uk/winners.asp for the August competition.

Comp: to win one of five PocketSurfer2 mobile web browsers

Im almost positive it's me, but no prize has arrived. Should I be cheeky and email them?

Updated : BBC Focus mag are great. Very quick replies and great service, and ...... I have won! One of these http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/07/13/preview_datawind_pocketsurfer_2/

Im so pleased I googled my name and chased it up, otherwise I doubt very much whether I'd ever have got my prize, as the competition was drawn in August!
